From the creator of the wildly popular Instagram account and 2021 New York Times bestseller SUBPAR PARKS, a collection of postcards with iconic and hilarious illustrations, some brand-new and exclusive to this collection.
With SUBPAR PARKS, both on the rapidly growing Instagram page and in the book, author and illustrator Amber Share combines two things that seem like they might not work together yet somehow harmonize perfectly: beautiful illustrations of our national parks, and the eye-popping one-star reviews disappointed tourists have left online.
Now, fans of the parks and of Amber’s work can enjoy the perfect gift: a book of 22 postcards, each featuring an illustration of a popular park, presented in this format for the very first time.A BUILT-IN FAN BASE: The Subpar Parks instagram account is up to nearly 365k followers, and publicity for the book included a feature in USA Today, an interview on WBUR’s Here and Now, and a starred review from Bookpage.
NATIONAL PARKS VISITORS AT AN ALL-TIME HIGH: According to the National Parks Service (NPS) more than 327 million people visited NPS sites in 2019, a 2.9% increase from 2018, and the third-highest number since record keeping began in 1904. There has never been more interest in our public lands and outdoor adventures.
ROAD TRIPS AND PARK VISITS ARE THE FUTURE OF TRAVEL: The Covid-19 pandemic brought vacations to a standstill in early 2020. According to CNBC and trend forecasters, travel recovery typically begins locally, so road trips to national parks and other outdoor attractions are expected to be the new normal for the foreseeable future.
EXCLUSIVE CONTENT: Several postcards will be all-new illustrations that have never been in print before.Praise for Subpar Parks
